Was he given the experimental COVID shot? That’s the first question I always ask in these kinds of stories. Basketball start LeBron James’ 18-year-old son suffered a cardiac arrest during a University of Southern California basketball workout
The New York Post reports:
LeBron James’ 18-year-old son Bronny suffered cardiac arrest during a basketball workout.
LeBron James’ son Bronny suffered cardiac arrest during a basketball workout at the University of Southern California Monday.
The 18-year-old athlete was taken to the hospital where he was treated in the intensive care unit (ICU) before being released to general care, a spokesperson for the James family told TMZ Tuesday.
“Yesterday while practicing Bronny James suffered a cardiac arrest. Medical staff was able to treat Bronny and take him to the hospital. He is now in stable condition and no longer in ICU,” the statement began.
“We ask for respect and privacy for the James family and we will update media when there is more information.”
The statement concluded with LeBron and his wife Savannah, thanking USC medical and athletic staff for their “incredible work and dedication” to the safety of their athletes.
Sources told the outlet that a call was made to 911 from the school’s Galen Center, which is where the team plays and practices. The patient, who was later confirmed to be Bronny, was rushed to the hospital via ambulance that was all lights and sirens.
